Thats good to know. Last time I needed a front tire balanced, and the bike shop AGAIN fckd it up, I took it to a local Goodyear shop, and they balanced it FOR FREE !! I think they were concerned that if they charged me, and it somehow messed up, they would be liable. I had done a lot of business there before, and the manager recognized me, so he agreed to let his best guy give it a shot. The tire mechanic was intrigued by the bike and wheel, probably another reason why they did it.

FYI, Jon. When I had my tires replaced with the GTS Dragons, the mounting and balancing was done at Rockville HD/Battley Cycle and it appears they did it correctly, as there are no wobbles or anything that feels even slightly out of kilter--the feel is just like the it was when shod with OEM shoes!
